論評

Alterations to the original bowings and dynamics are clearly marked, and the edition follows the composer’s own piano reduction of the work which included additions to the solo cello part. Thankfully, unlike my own French this one contains bar numbers, and some very carefully-organised pageturns in the piano part.[Music Teacher, 2003]
